Who could have predicted this!?!?? Why weren't we warned?
Does it not? It still does in my experience. Our company has these weird company wide meetings where they tell us how they're doing great, everything's great, but because growth isn't "double digit" due to inflation so there is a pay freeze. (I'd love even a less than double digit pay rise - even though that's still a pay cut with inflation).
Pretty much exactly what you are saying. Employees are grumbling, but don't want to get laid off and are uncertain about the job market.
Read openAI’s papers on chatGPT. They define it as a next token guesser and detail the exact hidden layer functions that accomplish this. It’s not an oversimplification, it’s what the creators of these AIs define their creations as.
I am aware how LLMs work. I wasn't denying it works through next token generation. My point is that saying it cannot accomplish anything general because it is predicting probability of the next token is dumb. And referring to it as a "fancy autocomplete" to justify that is over simplifying and overlooking it's capabilities.
Other properties may be there, but as you say they are emergent; emergent properties rely on two or more sources, if one goes away so do they.
What do you mean by this? What are your referring to as sources?
Building a garage - biggest DIY project I’ve attempted so far
Don’t know if anyone is interested. I normally do videos on car restoration, but decided to film myself building a new garage.

You can distil anything down to "just fancy X" by over simplifying.
As much as people like to say "it's a fancy autocomplete" it's getting *much *more general, and displaying more and more emergent properties like reasoning

They are becoming more and more general. If you can't see that given all the pretty general tasks people have begun using them for...
I thought I was getting my head a little around federated nature of lemmy and now you go telling me this!
Should I re-post it to a non beehaw DIY community do you think?

God, I wish there were more "X of the week" type shows. I know breaking bad and a bunch of really great shows came out and made the golden age of serial story heavy TV happen - but man, I'm exhausted having to watch 20 hours of something to get any kind of plot resolution.
I mess the days where you could just watch 40 minutes of a show and have a whole story start to finish. So much less exhausting not having to get super invested. I don't have the energy for serial TV shows these days!
My wife's grandmother went through chemo and was so happy when her hair grew back naturally curly and she never had to get a perm again. Was nice for something to make her happy after it all!
Building a garage. Concrete pour went well, which is what I was stressing the most about. Not I'm just gradually laying blocks on evening and lunchtimes. It's exhausting doing a day's work then cooking, then spending hours building walls - but it's very rewarding seeing it slowly turn into a garage.
Grew up in Yorkshire where we will shorten anything but an "o" sound, which instead becomes very long. So scone rhymes "stone", with extra "o".

Yes, I think people are naive about how much humans base their creative work of things they have read/experienced when saying generative AI just copies what came before it. So is almost everything humans create.
A lot of entertainment is very derivative. Honestly, I wonder what kind of stuff will start happening in creative circles when generative AI content becomes ubiquitous.
Look at photography and how it affected the art world (arguably). Once perfectly reproducing images became possible art started exploring so much more than the technical aspect of how things looked. Impressionism, cubism, modernism, post modernism.
Being able to make a picture look like the subject lost almost all value, and art moved onto more abstract endeavours.
What will happen to writing when a "normal" book can be written in a day? What will happen to music when a celebrity singer can just be put into any song with the click of a button?
I see a fair amount of jobs with it on LinkedIn here in the UK, though I haven't worked with it for a few years now it seems a popular language in enterprise.
should say that I’m speaking in terms of epistemology and counterargument. I’d much rather you just acknowledge the obvious truth and move on rather than try further to contort the evidence to make Redditors not racist. Some arguments are fun, but this one is tedious.
Yeah, you're right, I agree with what you've said. It is a racist slur, regardless of the source.
It comes from the Lord of the Rings, I don't think it has anything specifically to do with Muslims. They use it to dehumanise, that's true. It mostly spread as use for Russian soldiers that were just rampaging around killing and torturing civilians, or for those shelling and killing civilians, ultimately - behaving rather inhumanly. I've only ever seen it referencing Russian combatants.
Soldiers almost always have a slur for enemy combatants, sadly, but honestly I don't blame them. Dehumanising your enemy is a sad reality of war.
I think us as bystanders should try not to use such slurs though. Ultimately, throwing slurs around doesn't look good even if the people you're throwing them at are committing atrocities and invading countries.

Edit: I agree it's racist, reminds me of WW2 soldiers's slurs like "jap", "krout" etc. Regardless of the original source, and ultimately it being rather mild compared to many, it's a racial slur and shouldn't be used.
